I've had some issues getting ball joints working with PLA (no give/too rigid). Has anyone had success getting this together/functioning well with PLA?
I struggle with tolerances. Had to do a lot of sanding and it certainly doesn’t fit together like his build video. I don’t know what the secret is.
So since I using PETG and theres a little bit of stringing with such small parts, I'm using a mini torch to clean up the stringing, and 'tweaking' some of these more delicate parts as needed. There's a hinged hip mod with a crossbar that has you trying to print a peg and peg hole to combine two halves of a ball to make it it's own hinge.... And man that is a chore. Sanding, maybe expanding the hole just a wee bit with heat and a needle has helped. But really, with the size of the hole and pin I'm probably gonna just print two pieces with the hole and use a piece of filament as the pin.
Dry as you can PETG, sticking to 0.15mm layer height, and using runners as often as possible has been helping keep these things as tight as possible.
